Show r.TOwnroarmaM...v.M. -minim r aumif nm ! I " ' ! I The New Ejght-Cylinder Cadillac s Type 55 j HP HERE is one thought in connection with the coming of this new Cadillac which we would like I you to grasp at once. s With the advent of this car, the Cadillac "Eight" enters upon its third successive season, with no radical change in , the basic principles of its design. . jj This is perhaps the first time such a thing has happened in motor car development, and you will ' ! I quickly see its significance as applied to the Cadillac. i Quite properly, we believe, the world has always looked to the Cadillac Company for advanced ideas, I improved practice and progressive principles. The fact, therefore, that the Cadillac car has proven itself beyond the need of radical change, is,, in , itself, too impressive and too illuminating to call for comment. . . It does not by any manner of means, imply that the Cadillac process of refinement had come to a conclusion. m ! In a multitude of ways, this is a better, finer Cadillac than any which has preceded it the subject of I unremitting research and scientific betterment in scores of details. i 1 "What the absence of radical change really means, is that the underlying principles of Cadillac V-type i eight-cylinder construction have been proven fundamentally sound by the performance of 31,000 j I cars. " j I It means that the Cadillac Company, with resources at its command probably superior to those pos- sessed by any other motor car plant' in the world, has arrived at the deliberate' judgment that the I kind of a motor car which it is now building, represents a higher degree of efficiency than any 1 other in existence. j It means that this is the joint judgment of every expert mind associated with this Company. It ex- III! j presses the judgment of 31,000 owners who cannot conceive of any respect in which Cadillac prin- I ciples could be changed to their advantage. j The new Cadillac conforms "to the finest Cadillac traditions, down to the least and last details and it I j ' advances them still more closety toward perfection. j It is a beautiful car to look upon. I The superior riding qualities, with which you are familiar, are enhanced and intensified. I The driving ease of last year and the year before, accentuated by the. longer wheelbase of the new car, I j ' is more 'marked than ever. , . It' is doubtful if motoring can give rise to a situation which can successfully challenge Cadillac powers. The old feeling that it is folly to seek further the old sense of security that the Cadillac represents ; the utmost in a motor car will come over you more strongly than ever. j AVe are. serenely confident of the exhilaration and enthusiasm which you will experience on the occasion oc-casion of your first ride in this unusual car.
